Thanks for all the info, but mine REFUSES to accept any software! I have tried BBSAK, which after about 40 tries, refuses to see my phone. I have done all the necessary described in this thread....nothing! To me it seems as if my phone was wiped, when I sent it in for "repairs" and was told it would not load software. I refused to accept that it could not be fixed and wanted to load new software, but no matter what I try.... >:/
My observation are as follow:
- BBSAK does not connect to my phone...WTF!
- DT sees my phone for what it is :BB9530 goes through the motions but refuses to load, battery in or out. Screen stays black, just red light.
- I cannot get the Apploader to give me the message :USB: Unknown. I get USB:31051B15, which is the pin of the phone. I've tried pulling the battery, inserting USB and clicking next simultaneously, etc many, many times....
- I have done the command prompt... C:\.....RIM...\No JVM...etc. Nothing
- All I get when trying to force the Apploader is "Cannot load...etc....." Image attachedAttachment 4055
What remains, apart from smashing the unit against a brick wall?!
p.s. I bought the unit in Dubai (reconditioned, I think....) and it worked perfectly for 2 - 3 months. One day I just got the dreaded "error 507 reload software" message and since then no amount of forcing would allow me to reload the OS.... :'(
